Description
The stress level at the surface triggers the process of crack initiation flaws
and other surface imperfection can act as stress raisers increasing local
stresses at the surface. Thus, corrosion attack then fabrication/welding
defects/imperfections can act as a starting point for SCC.
Residual Stresses
5. Structure of cracks
• Transgranular Stress corrosion cracking
Through the grains
• Intergranular Stress corrosion cracking
Along grain boundaries , proceeds without regard to whether
the metal is stressed or not.

• Shot-peening
• Year : 2016
Background
• Metallography analysis
Three conditions required for the
occurrence of SCC were achieved
• A susceptible material.
• An environment that causes
SCC for that material.
• Sufficient tensile stress to
induce SCC. This situation was
observed by means of the
analyses performed to the base
metal
Base metal microstructure
Work Order
• Evaluation of
the Ammonia
Pipeline
Conclusion
• To consider studies and kinematic registers of the ground where the pipeline
is lying, in order to determine the mass movements or batter.

Description
• Results from these approaches reveal that in some cases the strain
level is more significant (up to 85 times more), while in others
the corrosion level is the most significant factor (up to 11 times
more). The studies that considered the coupled corrosion-fatigue
situation, whether circumstantially or systematically, reveal
greater effects on fatigue strength, with reductions in the order of
30% when compared with the uncoupled situation
• A realistic loading history, however, has not been considered,
regardless of the approach selected (experimental or theoretical).
Future research should focus on objectively determining the
significance of the corrosion – fatigue phenomenon, potentially
proposing standard procedures for bridge structures design. Also,
realistic force histories should be considered.
